Du kanske undrar varför du ska ta dig tid att rösta på mitt SXSW 2017-förslag, Distance Makes the Teamwork Harder...Or Does It, om att arbeta med globala team? Jag tänkte göra det enkelt för dig. Här är 10 anledningar till att du borde rösta på min session (eller kolla in min video nedan):
- Du hamnar i en storm av att försöka få arbetet gjort i en värld eller en global ekonomi som blir alltmer platt.
- You DON’T have skills like Tom Cruise in Minority Report.
- You spend your workdays in isolation but are expected to work with people as if they are in the next cubicle or room.
- Du har lagkamrater i flera tidszoner.
- You have communication challenges (really, who doesn’t?).
- You are dealing with some “interesting” cultural elements and want to commiserate on trends and challenges like communication style, organizational hierarchy, speed of innovation.
- You want to learn from someone who walks the talk: I have 18 years in the technology space, from roles in Fortune 1000 companies all the way to the “four dudes, a dog and a garage” level startups. I also ran a software development team based in Romania from my bedroom desk in Austin. I now work every day with teams in Sweden, India, Austin, and California. We help companies large and small overcome the challenges they face with the ever-changing nature of collaborative projects.
- You want to understand the common traps around communication, culture and technology that factor into the success or demise of virtual teams.
- You want to know some tips and best practices for companies aspiring to drive productivity with their global workforces.
- You want to be entertained.
My Official SXSW Entry
Avstånd gör lagarbetet svårare...eller gör det?
In a flattening world and global economy, no longer are we constrained by geography, physical location and time zones. Working with global teams is becoming the new normal with over 70% of us interacting with external parties on a regular basis and almost a third working with team members in other geographies. Global workforces afford many business advantages, and technology plays a key part in keeping us connected, but what are the considerations for those working with global teams and how do you avoid the pitfalls? If you are among the growing majority of professionals who are working with teams around the world, you won’t want to miss this session.
